David was born on the nineteenth of October in Queens, New York. He was first introduced to music at the age of eight, when his parents enrolled him in piano classes in his hometown. When he moved down to Florida at the age of 15, he started learning how to play drums at a local church.

Shortly after that, David realized playing Guitar Hero wasn't quite enough for him so his father picked up an old guitar from a garage sale a few months later. He immediately fell in love with it. About 3 months later, David entered a Regional Competition known as "Top Nazarene Talent" and placed first. He then got the opportunity to compete at Trevecca Nazarene University and placed fifth in the region after only playing for a short period of time.

Since then, he has played in many churches, venues and festivals with local bands and talented musicians. His influences range from Pop, Contemporary, Alternative, Rock and Metal. He hopes to help his students find their own unique style by ...

Personalized lessons that are at your own pace!

I've been playing guitar since I was 12 years old. It's an amazing instrument and I love showing people the possibilities it has! I perform and sing with my guitar every weekend so my expertise is in playing and singing but I love to teach many different styles from rythmn to lead to string training. Guitar is a tricky instrument but I pride myself on not only making it fun but showing you how to make it your own!

If you are brand-new to the guitar, I'd love to jump right in and teach you a fun song right away during your first lesson. I like making this as fun as possible while you're learning a lot about the guitar. If you already know how to play, I'd like to help you gain a better understanding of how the guitar applies to basic music theory. I want to help you truly gain your independence as a guitar player. In my opinion, there are only two things that really matter when learning how to play the guitar: 1) Having fun and 2) Learning a lot. That's what I hope that you can attain by learning from me.

I put a lot of planning into each lesson. I have a system where students move up through levels. I send out lesson notes with a plan for daily practice. I carefully introduce repertorie so the student works on several pieces at a time and is able to complete and receive a new piece every week. This is assuming the student follows the lesson plan every day in their daily practice. I have a ladder for the student to climb that starts at the very bottom and climbs through what someone would be studying in graduate work in top music conservatories.

I've been playing and performing on Guitar for about ten years. I play a multitude of different styles and genres, including rock, country, r&b, jazz, blues, metal, funk, motown, along with many others.

My teaching approach is relatively simple; I work to empower you to approach and play your own instrument through rhythm, moderate music theory, as well as fretboard theory and picking/plucking styles. I also like to do practical application studies, i.e., using songs you're interested in learning to apply new techniques.

Most importantly, we progress at your pace and yours alone. If there's something very specific you'd like to accomplish, we can most certainly do that, or if you want to improve upon your general approach and method, that is also something I am available for.
